...and then again.

I guess it takes an ice storm to get me back in the office to blog. I was reading that the last time blogged was on my birthday in May last year and now here it is February 2013.

I will say this, that last entry I did, well I went on to ride a 50 miler at the Carti ride with very little training.  File that under "dumb things I've done".  I really thought I was going to give up before it was over.  It was sad and made me put the bike back up.  I keep telling myself that this spring I will pull it back out and ride once again.  Several things would be different and the main one would be that I now have a truck.  I went for 2 years without a car or truck and last Labor Day I bought myself a truck.  It has been sheer freedom.  So now I'll be able to just go from work like I once did rather than going home and talking myself out of it.

A lot has happened since last May but you'll pick it all up along the way.  Here's a few teasers: I'm trying to lose some weight, I still am a photog, my daughter is getting married in August, Terri and I will be empty-nesters again, I have a shop now that the girls call the man cave, and I'm doing a lot of landscaping.

Here are a few shots from a few weeks ago at the rodeo in Benton.
